Course Description Operations Research (OR) is a field in which people use mathematical and engineering methods to study optimization problems in Business and Management, Economics, Computer Science, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, etc. The series of courses consists of three parts, we focus on deterministic optimization techniques, which is a major part of the field of OR. As the third part of the series, we study mathematical properties of linear programs, integer programs, and nonlinear programs. We also introduce applications of these theoretical properties: How they help us develop better ways to solve mathematical programs. Course Objectives The objective of the course is to understand the theoretical properties of linear programs, integer programs, and nonlinear programs. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to apply the mathematical properties to reduce the complexity of real-world problems or to solve it.
